The Padres' Xander Bogaerts says it'll feel 'different' to face the team that developed him, Brandon Dixon recalled, Ha-Seong Kim in two-hole, Adam Engel in center as Manny Machado hits injured list
in the home dugout at Petco Park on Friday afternoon, the Padres’ new shortstop admitted to will feel “a little different” seeing old friends likeThe first trip back to Fenway Park next year, of course, will certainly hit differently too.“If you don’t , they let you know,” Bogaerts said.
While Bogaerts said he’ll likely feel a “little more chill” this weekend at Petco Park, a opposed to that first trip back to Boston — “I don’t know if I’ll get some boos,” he said in reference to leaving as a free agent over the winter” — he was quick to stop a reporter asking if the fan base here was indeed more “chill.”
“It’s not chill,” Bogaerts corrected. “We know we have to go out there and execute and play better. Fans have been letting us know for a little bit. It’s not chill. It’s 40-something-thousand every day, and they are on our side. We have to go out there and play better.” Bogaerts was referencing the boos that have increased as the Padres have slipped further below .500. They began the weekend a game out of last place in the NL West and returned to the ballpark on Friday after an off-day followed a player-called meeting.
Bogarts obliged all the questions from the visiting media, many of whom he hugged as they dropped by the clubhouse, from extension talks breakdowns, to needing Devers pick up the tab Thursday because he forgot his wallet, to what he learned while winning two titles in Boston.“We have to get this ship rolling the right way,” Bogaerts said. “I know there will be a lot of talk about me this weekend, but we have much more important stuff to take care of.
